নারায়ণ, আরকে দ্বারা মালগুডি অ্যাডভেঞ্চারস

After the stupendous success of Malgudi Schooldays, R.K. Narayan’s chronicle of the escapades of Swami and his friends, comes Malgudi Adventures with more delightful stories of the children’s adventures in the magical South Indian small town of Malgudi.
There are the memorable stories of Babu, who, in trying to set up the lights for his sisters’ Navaratri display, manages to plunge the entire household into darkness; of a snake charmer boy who grows up with a monkey named Rama as his companion; and of Raju, who decides to become a guide when a train station is built at Malgudi. Also included are the fascinating stories of Balu, who dumps his father’s accounts ledger in the gutter; of a little boy who finds himself lost on the streets of Malgudi late one night; of Chandran, who falls head over heels in love on the banks of the Sarayu one evening; and of the hilarious sequence of events that unfolds when Raja the tiger decides to seek refuge in the local school.
Culled from some of Narayan’s greatest novels such as The Man-eater of Malgudi, The Bachelor of Arts, The English Teacher, The Guide, and The Financial Expert, and containing three of his short stories, Malgudi Adventures is a funny, exciting and entertaining book that children of all ages will enjoy.
